The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2017 and crafted by Corinne Cachen, 901 nutmeg, almond, patchouli by Bon Parfumeur is a captivating Oriental Spicy fragrance. The composition opens with the brightness of ginger and grapefruit, creating an immediate freshness that cuts through the sweetness of mandarin orange and black pepper. As it settles, white wood and nutmeg provide warmth, while the rich vanilla and almond notes add depth. Patchouli and tonka bean bring a grounding earthiness, rounded off by musk for a subtle sensuality.
Given its rich base notes that take time to develop, apply two sprays initially. The fragrance projects well from close to skin rather than filling a room, so allow it to bloom over an hour for maximum impact.
